How do I connect the resource console to the cracker?
Biggus Dickus 29 Aug, 2019 @ 2:52am 
I have a resources console with an oil well, a cracker, a oil depot and a chemfuel depot and when I try to send someone to work the console it says "Cannot operate Resource Console (No connected refineries or crackers ready for work).
Biggus Dickus 29 Aug, 2019 @ 2:55am 
I put the resource console next to the cracker and it's working. Wanted to operate it from a distance but oh well

What is wrong with this setup ? I'm obviously doing something wrong, but I have no clue what.

Your assistance would be appreciated, please.


EDIT : below is the power grid, just to be complete.

did you set any storage tanks to drain, they will be ignored if they are, also did you enable the limiters on the console, if you did try disabling them
Karmapowered 12 Sep, 2019 @ 8:07am 
No to your first question, none of my tanks are set to drain, and about your second question, these are my current settings for your relevant mods I think :

Thank you for your assistance, I really want this mod to work. I've suffered through enough raids to consider RimAtomics and this mod as some kind of reward for staying alive for so long ^.^

EDIT : I've noticed that on the cracker it said "Water 0/500". I don't have to feed it water too, for it to work because I'm using the DubsBadHygiene mod, right ? because currently the Rimfeller setup isn't connected to my DBH grid.

ooooh you turned on hygiene link in the settings, that means the cracker requires water, not sure why so many people are just ticking that option then not adding the water pipes, maybe i need to put int some double confirm system to make sure everyone actually reads what the link option does
Karmapowered 12 Sep, 2019 @ 8:18am 
You're right, I blindly activated the links, fully trusting in the author that I know to otherwise produce high quality mods ^.^ Just kidding, as you said I actually had no clue what it did, but I thought it would seem to be the sensible thing to do (and none of the screenshots on your workshop page showed any sewage water pipes either).

Hmm, what does the interconnection provide as feature ? If it's just sewage treatment, I'll probably remove the link, as I'm fully covered by... ahem, a nearby river. I can do so on the main menu it seems.

Thank you very much for helping out!

the explanations of what everything does is in a mouse over tooltip maybe i need ? icons or something or make the tooltip window a static box on the page so its obvious when you mouse over.
basically it just makes all refineries and crackers require constant water feed to work, and in rimatomics cooling towers need constant water feed

I thought you did it perfectly with RimAtomics, with screenshot vignettes appearing in-game right beside the topic being researched.

That should be enough of a guidance to any player I think, at least it allowed me to instantly understand what was required. Never seeing any mention of sewage pipes (on your workshop page or elsewhere, but I might have missed them) had me fooled, even if I had the intuition with "Water 0/500" that something was amiss.

EDIT : and yes, maybe a tooltip for the extra "links" to DBH or other of your mods, for the click-happy people like me.

EDIT2 : Thank you for your outstanding mods, I know you're being told every day, but still not enough times.
